Turn on HP wireless direct printing
1.
From the printer control panel, touch
(Wireless), and then touch Settings.
2. Touch Wireless Direct, and then touch On.
TIP: If you would like to use HP wireless direct printing with greater security and
if the computer or mobile device supports WPA2 encryption, select the option that
will enable security. With security enabled, only users with the password can
connect wirelessly to the printer. Without enabling security, anyone with a wireless
device within the wireless range of the printer can connect to the printer.

4. If you have enabled security, touch Security Passcode to display the wireless direct
password.
